Building a Solar Roller from scratch takes planning, persistence and time. In a high school setting time is often the bottleneck. So we've created an online resource that takes teachers and teams through the process of designing and building a car.

It has never been our goal to tell teams the best way to build these cars. Instead we offer as much support as possible to help teams create their own unique vehicles. The Online Pit Area provides written advice, videos showing how others have done it, and discussion forums to address questions on all kinds of related topics.
